Remember to keep your anti-virus software up-to-date.
Most PC’s get infected because users forget to update their software. The anti-virus software can only protect your valuable data from the virus’ it knows about. New viruses come out all the time. Most AV programs are updated every 2 weeks, so try to get in the habit of running update at least this often.
Windows Updates are important also, there are programs called worms, these are written by hackers and are able to penetrate your windows based computers due to flaws in the software. With billions of lines of code, there are always going to be glitches. But the people at Microsoft are always trying to fix these glitches with patches. These patches will help to close the wormholes and help to prevent the worms eating your data.
A clean PC is a happy PC. When dust is allowed to accumulate inside your computer, your motherboard, CPU, power supply, and other add on cards can be damaged.
The computer power supply is designed to draw air in from the front of the case, pulling it across the motherboard and out through the exhaust of the power supply.
When dust is inside the PC, the air is not able to pull the excess heat from the devices. Also dust accumulation can cause ESD, or Electro-Static Discharge. Much like rubbing your feet across the carpet and touching a doorknob. The little shock you get from this is enough to damage your RAM (memory stick), cause the CMOS (mother board brain), or even the other cards in the computer to fail or to corrupt your data. A vacuum cleaner is one of the worst things to try to clean your computers insides with, because the movement of dust through the vacuum hose is like sticking a static wand into the computer. A can of compressed air is one of the preferred ways to clean the PC, just remember to un-plug the computer first!
